@Jeffrey Bourque Are you planning to finance this with a local bank or credit union?

Learn to control your spending and pay off debt.

You need a management plan in a market to make it viable.

ESP if you are planning to lowball, an agent might be more reasonable to discuss with (seller might get emotional and offended with your offer).

But if you have to jump through hoops or spend a significant amount of money to put it in might not be worth it. 

What’s the plan?

I was thinking this might work on my property in Redding and can be adapted to a shared housing project for seniors (though I'd want rooms large enough for bed, bath and seating area)  It's my understanding that it is considered a SFR with seperated bedrooms as far as planning.

If your starting with one 6 plex and plan to keep long term.

Take the money you would be spending on filing and additional costs and put it toward an umbrella policy.

I plan to be here often but have been listening to the bigger pockets podcast for the last year now, and have consistently been saving to make my first investment this year.
